This is almost 2.4 million rubles
Lawyer Vasily Cherepanov shared a court case, at the end of which the owner of the Lada Xray Cross crossover that burned down in January 2020 received significant monetary compensation.
The car was purchased in November 2019 for 839 thousand rubles, but burned out two months after that. The Ministry of Emergency Situations called the cause spontaneous combustion as a result of a short circuit. The car was purchased on credit and with CASCO insurance, but the insurance company refused to pay compensation, saying that the owner did not repair the car on time.
The trial began in 2022: first, the lawyer filed a claim against the plant, an agreement was signed in July 2022, but payments under it were not made, so they had to go to court. As a result, AvtoVAZ paid a total of 2.391 million rubles — including penalties and fines.
